Prayer for the People, the City, and the Nations
Gifts — It Is Finished
There’s no deed that can redeem us
There’s no right nor magic word
Only by the work of Jesus can salvation be secured
It is finished, he has done it
Let your weary heart rejoice
Our redemption is accomplished
Raise a shout with ragged voice
And go bravely into battle
Knowing he has won the war
It is finished, lift your head and weep no more
There’s no sacrifice to offer
There’s no penance to complete
Freely drink of living water
Without money, come and feast
It is finished, he has done it
Let your weary heart rejoice
Our redemption is accomplished
Raise a shout with ragged voice
And go bravely into battle
Knowing he has won the war
It is finished, lift your head
Let every sinner rejoice
Hear the dying victor’s cry
Raise up your voice
Sing it out through earth and sky
It is finished, he has done it
Let your weary heart rejoice
Our redemption is accomplished
Raise a shout with ragged voice
And go bravely into battle
Knowing he has won the war
It is finished, lift your head and weep no more

A Confession of Jesus Christ
Great indeed, we confess, is the mystery of godliness:
He was manifested in the flesh, vindicated by the Spirit,
seen by angels, proclaimed among the nations,
believed on in the world, taken up in glory.
—1 Timothy 3:16 (ESV)
Praise to the Lord, the Almighty
Praise to the Lord
The Almighty, the King of creation
O my soul, praise him
For he is thy health and salvation
All ye who hear
Now to his temple draw near
Praise him in glad adoration
Praise to the Lord
Who o’er all things so wondrously reigneth
Shelters thee under his wings
Yea, so gently sustaineth
Hast thou not seen
How thy desires e’er have been
Granted in what he ordaineth
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Praise to the Lord
Who doth prosper thy work and defend thee
Surely his goodness and mercy
Here daily attend thee
Ponder anew
What the Almighty can do
If with his love he befriend thee
Praise to the Lord
O let all that is in me adore him
All that hath life and breath
Come now with praises before him
Let the ‘amen’
Sound from his people again
Gladly for aye we adore him
Let the ‘amen’
Sound from his people again
Gladly for aye we adore him
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah

Prayer of Confession
Father, have mercy on us.
Our sins are more than we can bear,
and our guilt is greater than we can overcome.
Fill us with the assurance of Jesus,
whose death is our atonement,
and whose life is our life.
Make us a merciful people.
Teach us to forgive others.
Help us to practice grace.
Fill us with your Spirit.
In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
The Lord’s Supper
Jesus, I Come
Out of my bondage, sorrow and night
Jesus, I come, Jesus I come
Into thy freedom, gladness and light
Jesus, I come to thee
Out of my sickness into thy health
Out of my wanting and into thy wealth
Out of my sin and into thyself
Jesus, I come to thee
Out of my shameful failure and loss
Jesus, I come, Jesus, I come
Into the glorious gain of thy cross
Jesus, I come to thee
Out of earth’s sorrows into thy balm
Out of life’s storms and into thy calm
Out of distress into jubilant psalm
Jesus, I come to thee
Out of unrest and arrogant pride
Jesus, I come, Jesus, I come
Into thy blessed will to abide
Jesus, I come to thee
Out of myself to dwell in thy love
Out of despair into raptures above
Upward forever on wings like a dove Jesus, I come to thee
Out of the fear and dread of the tomb
Jesus, I come, Jesus, I come
Into the joy and light of thy home
Jesus, I come to thee
Out of the depths of ruin untold
Into the peace of thy sheltering fold
Ever thy glorious face to behold
Jesus, I come to thee
